I know, I know -- I'm so sorry I'm late for the February #lookforthelight! But it was a short month, Alex's birthday, and ...

Anyway.

Here's the good news, though: you guys so came through. I mean, let's face it, weather-wise, February packed a punch this year, didn't it? And yet, despite the grey, the slush, the thundersleet, for heaven's sake, you guys came through.

Here are some of my very favourites. Please be sure to click on the names of the photographers -- there's even more good stuff in each of their streams.

Thanks again to all of you who participated this month in #lookforthelight -- keep 'em coming! If you'd like to participate and you have an Instagram account (it's free), simply grab shots of the light in your life with your mobile device, and add the hashtag "#lookforthelight" to your shot, either in the caption or in the comments. I'll feature my 10 favourite shots again at the end of March here on Chookooloonks, giving lots of link love, naturally. And of course, click here to see all the submissions (and feel free to follow along my own progress at heychookooloonks on Instagram!).
